I think the Jaguars have good running backs.  If you give them a hole, they often take advantage.  They've gotten some big runs which has raised the yards per carry average.  The problem is that the Jaguars can't run when teams know they are going to run.  We consistently get stopped on third down, fourth down, red zone, trying to kill the clock, etc.  I think it goes back to the offensive line.  They don't have the size and strength to open a hole if the other team knows it's coming.  Our running game is only effective when they can take advantage of the element of surprise.  In obvious running situations, they struggle.
